Automate LinkedIn Posts to Email Newsletter with Apify and GPT-4

Who's it for

This workflow is ideal for content creators, marketers, and business professionals who want to automatically repurpose their LinkedIn content into email newsletters. If you're actively posting on LinkedIn and want to maximize your content's reach by delivering it directly to your email subscribers, this automation saves you hours of manual work each week.

What it does This workflow automatically transforms your latest LinkedIn posts into professionally formatted email newsletters. It monitors your LinkedIn profile, extracts your most recent post, and intelligently converts it into engaging newsletter content with proper HTML formatting. The final newsletter is then delivered directly to your target email inbox, ready to be reviewed and sent to your subscribers.

How it works The workflow operates through four key stages:

Content Extraction: Uses an Apify actor node to scrape all posts from your specified LinkedIn account

Latest Post Filter: Automatically identifies and isolates your most recent LinkedIn post from the scraped data

AI Transformation: Leverages OpenAI to convert the LinkedIn post into newsletter-style content with improved formatting and structure

Email Delivery: Applies email-friendly HTML formatting and sends the polished newsletter to your designated email inbox

Requirements To use this workflow, you'll need:

Apify account - For LinkedIn data scraping (free tier available) OpenAI API key - For content transformation and formatting Gmail API credentials - For email delivery

Setup instructions
